Man black guys raise up playing street basketball. White men raise up playing gym basketball.
Black guys learn fast how to dunk with 1 hand, white guys learn fast how to make profit from a pick n roll, or how to shoot from 3pts.
Black guys love to defend 1 on 1, phisically. White guys knows zone defence better than Tex Winter!
It's like that. It's a totally different view of playing basketball.
It's like soccer: Brazilians learn fast how to pass the ball, dribble, attack, score. Italians learn fast how to defend, make pressing, offsides and how to dive.
Two different ways to play soccer. Both are good. Obviously 1 on 1 a Brazilian player can do more damage than an Italian one, dribbling him, making those special moves with the ball, etc.. But as a team, Italy sometimes beats Brazil.
It's the same with bball.

^exactly.
sorry to say that, but most black americans play to look good and whites (especially Europeans) look to play good. you know? it's like they go for the hard dunk when the other ones rather go for the secure lay-up, stuff like this.
white Boy:
wow we are just sterotyping like crazy... all black people dont play the same, just as all white people dont play the same...and ^^7even, were the fuck do u come off saying that, saying most... u call people ignorant, and then u post shit like that... how do u figure, and what is your statistic of most, 80%? 90%??
pappy:
A lot of it has to due where you grew up too. A white kid growing up in an urban area is goin try an play the ball a black kid in the park is playing. I think a lot of it has to do where you grow up 2.
